They met in a hurricaneStanding in the shelter out of the rainShe tucked a note into his handLater on they took his carDrove on down where the beaches areHe wrote her name in the sandNever even let go of her hand

Somehow they stayed that wayFor those 5 days in MayMade all the stars around them shineFunny how you can look in vainLiving on nerves and such sweet painThe loneliness that cuts so fineTo find the face you've seen a thousand times

Sometimes the world beginsTo set you up on your feet againIt wipes the tears from your eyesHow will you ever knowThe way that circumstances goAlways going to hit you by surpriseI know my pastYou were thereIn everything I've doneYou are the one

Looking back it's hard to tellWhy they stood while others fellSpend your life working it outAll I know is one cloudy dayThey both just ran awayRain on the windshield heading SouthShe loved the lines around his mouth

Sometimes the world beginsTo set you up on your feet againIt wipes the tears from your eyesHow will you ever knowThe way that circumstances goAlways going to hit you by surpriseI know my pastYou were thereIn everything I've doneYou are the one
